About

An 8-week program designed to provide an in-depth introduction to the development of interactive, inter-operable, and user-centered websites using JavaScript, HTML5, and related leading-edge technologies such as CSS3. These technologies support media-rich, interactive websites that have the look and feel of traditional desktop applications. HMTL5 is designed to subsume previous versions of this mark-up language and to work transparently with JavaScript and JavaScript frameworks such as jQuery; and HTML5 is a leading candidate to support cross-platform mobile applications. CSS3 is the preferred language for specifying the visual design of HTML5 documents. Modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks, in particular, jQuery, are well suited to work with HTML5 in the construction of media-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, mashups, and folksonomies.
